COMPOSITION OF MATTER FOR PAINT SPECIFICATION formingpart of LettersPatent No. 529,241, dated November 13, 1894.

Application filed July 27,1894:- Serial No. 518,785. (N0 specimens.)

To aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, CARL LOUIS CHRIS- TIAN DE BRUYcKER, MAX WILLIAMHENRY DE BRUYOKER, and AUGUST MARTIN HEIN-' RICH DE BRUYCKER, all ofBrooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented anew and useful Composition of Matter for Paint, of which the followingis a specification.

Our improved composition consists of the following ingredients, combinedin substantially the proportions stated, viz: Venice turpentine, fourand one-half pounds; linseed oil, one-fourth pound; litharge, one-fourthpound; common turpentine, one-half pound; benzine, one-half pound; drywhite lead, six pounds; zinc white, four pounds; dry plaster, fourpounds.

The ingredients are combined as follows: We take the Venice turpentine,linseed oil and litharge and put the same into a pot and boil it forthree hours. Then thin down with one-half pound of turpentine andone-half pound of benzine, and when the mixture is cold add white lead,zinc white and dry plaster and then run the mixture through a paint milland grind it fine, after which thin it down with benzine and turpentineoil until it is of the rightconsistency for use.

This paint hasa good body, so that one coat of it is equal to. two coatsof ordinary paint. It dries quickly, is well adapted to be applied tonew work, rough work, metal and earthen or tile surfaces, and whenapplied to any article it gives it the appearance of having beenenameled.

What we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the UnitedStates, is

The herein describedenamel paint consisting in Venice turpentine,linseed oil and litharge mixed and boiled, and to which is addedturpentine, benzine, white lead, zinc white and plaster, the whole thenbeing ground together, substantially as described.
